Murraya koenigii is a small tropical tree in the citrus family native to India. Its leaves are widely used in southeast Asian cuisine, imprinting a unique flavor into curries and vegetarian dishes. Not to be confused with curry seasoning blends, a mixture of herbs and spices, curry leaves can be used in cooking as a whole leaf or gently crushed before adding to a dish. Curry leaves should be used in moderation in dishes to impart a unique tanginess. Also known for having beneficial properties in the Ayurvedic tradition, the leaves are often blended into teas, extracted for tinctures, or powdered and encapsulated.
